Reborn at 90, taking space to counterattack and become rich

"You kid, if you want to feed your classmates, just get some from home. What are you going to learn?"

Aunt Zhao did not expect that her granddaughter would like to eat it, and she was very happy: "I will decorate it for you tomorrow, and you can take it to school for your classmates to try."

"Grandma, just teach me how to do it." Xia Chutang said in a coquettish tone, "When I know how to do it, I will do it later. Okay?"

"If you really want to learn, then study during the holidays." Aunt Zhao didn't want her child to focus on anything other than studying. "Studying is the most important thing now. If you want to eat, I'll cook it for you."

Xia Chutang agreed: "Okay, let's make an agreement. Will you teach me during the holidays?"

\"Okay! It's agreed!\" Aunt Zhao smiled and nodded.

After eating, Xia Chutang returned to her hut, threw the comics she had just pretended to read into the cardboard box at her feet, turned off her Walkman and tuned it to the English news channel on the radio.

After doing a few pages of English test papers, Xia Chutang finished memorizing the articles in the textbook, took out the physics book and test questions, and started studying.

Xia Chutang didn't finish studying until 1 o'clock in the evening. When she got up to go to the toilet, she saw the bag of potatoes on the ground again.

If you throw it away directly, grandma will definitely be angry. But these sprouted potatoes were really inedible. She had to find a way to dispose of them without anyone noticing.

Speaking of which, the conditions at home are too poor, so grandma is used to it.

Maybe things would be better if she could make money.

In the morning, Aunt Zhao packed a box of soy sauce chili peppers. When Xia Chutang saw that the jars of pickled chili peppers were empty, she felt guilty.

"Grandma, you don't need so much."

Grandma is old, has high blood pressure, and her eyesight is not good due to cataracts. Xia Chutang took away so many pickled peppers at once, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

Aunt Zhao didn't notice her granddaughter's mood and said with a smile: "Take more if you treat your classmates to food. Don't let your classmates think you are stingy."

"But...the peppers are all gone."

"Let's do it later. Today I'm going to buy some chili peppers to pickle. The most important thing is that you get along well with your classmates at school, you know?"

Aunt Zhao learned from Zhang Minmin that her granddaughter was not popular at school.

We also know that Xia Chutang committed suicide the day before yesterday because she liked boys at school, but they didn't like her.

Xia Chutang is not very popular in school.

It was rare for a child to say that he wanted to bring something to school to share with his classmates, so Aunt Zhao wanted to save her child some face, so she definitely had to bring more of these things.

It is very worthwhile to be able to exchange pickled peppers for my granddaughter to get along well with her classmates.

When I arrived at the cafeteria at noon, many students came out with empty lunch boxes.

"The only thing the school can eat is one potato rib, but there's none today."

"That's right. The other meals are terrible and cost 7 yuan."

There was no potato ribs in the cafeteria today, so Xia Chutang and Cheng Jiaxuan made a portion of tomatoes and eggs and a portion of shredded potatoes.

"Today my grandma brought her own pickled peppers." After preparing the rice, Xia Chutang took out the small box and said, "You try it."

Cheng Jiaxuan picked up a piece of chili pepper, took a bite, and immediately praised: "This tastes really good. Your grandma's craftsmanship is really good."

"Really? I think so too!" Xia Chutang also particularly likes the pickled chili peppers, which are particularly salty and fragrant, and are a great addition to rice.

The students eating next to me saw the chili peppers on the Xia Chu candy table and the tasteless dishes in their lunch boxes, so they shamelessly went over to strike up a conversation: "Classmate, can you give me one of your chili peppers? The food in the cafeteria looks like plain water." It’s all cooked the same, I really can’t eat it in one bite. Please!”

Xia Chutang selfishly didn't want to give it.

But the girl who spoke looked sincere and asked with her hands clasped together, so she still gave one.

The girl thanked her, took the pepper and returned to her seat.

After taking a bite, the girl suddenly exclaimed: "Ah——"

This voice succeeded in making the noisy cafeteria quiet for a moment, and everyone looked over.

The companion who was traveling with the girl blushed and tugged at the corner of her clothes, "Qiu Lina, what are you doing!?"

Qiu Lina realized that she had lost her temper, and quickly sat down, pointing to the chili on the lid of the lunch box, with excitement on her face: "Try this chili, it's delicious."

"I won't eat it." Ye Fang looked at the dark pepper and shook his head: "My mother said that eating pickled things is not healthy. You'd better eat less."

Qiu Lina rolled her eyes and said, "If you don't eat, I'll fall down. I'm fine by myself!"

When school was over in the afternoon, there was a girl in front of the sixth gate of the first grade of high school. When she saw Xia Chutang coming out, she immediately ran forward and said, "Hello, Xia Chutang!"

The students in Class 1 and Class 6 of Senior High School all looked over. Everyone was curious. Is there any girl in the school who is willing to come to Xia Chutang? !

Zhang Minmin, who was packing her schoolbag, took a look and wrote down the girl's appearance.

Xia Chutang nodded and said hello, "Hello."

"Xia Chutang, where do you live? How many buses do you take? Let's go together?"

"Um... we don't seem to be that familiar, right?"

After walking a few steps, Xia Chutang stopped and asked distantly: "What can I do for you?"

For those who take the initiative to show kindness, Xia Chutang’s instinct is to be on guard.

The girl also noticed Xia Chutang's cold attitude, and stretched out her hand with a friendly smile: "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Qiu Lina, and I am in Class 1 and 2 of high school."

Xia Chutang looked at the hand stretched out in front of her and shook it perfunctorily.

"I asked you for a pickled chili for lunch, do you remember?"

"Hmm. So?"

It was because of her memory that Xia Chutang didn't drive her away immediately.

Qiu Lina scratched her head in embarrassment and said, "I actually... want you to bring me more pickled peppers tomorrow."

Xia Chutang: "..."

"What...I can buy it." Qiu Lina took out a five-dollar bill from her pocket, "Please bring two for me?"

Xia Chutang didn't reach out to take the money. She looked at the expectant girl and asked with a smile: "You know my name, so you should know that I confessed to the boy?"

The entire first grade of high school stayed away from Xia Chutang.

"I know."

"Then you still come to me?"

When Xia Chutang came to ask for something to eat at noon, she thought the girl didn't recognize her.

But she just called Xia Chutang's name, which meant she knew him.

Qiu Lina was confused and asked, "Why can't I find it?"

"I confessed my love to a boy." Xia Chutang reminded her: "And, I was rejected. It became a joke to the whole school. If you walk with me, you will be laughed at."

"What are you making fun of?" Qiu Lina felt confused, but in turn comforted her, "Don't care what those people say. People live for themselves, how can they live in other people's mouths?"

Xia Chutang: "..."

"Let's talk about chili peppers? Can you bring me two more tomorrow?" Qiu Lina was focused on chili peppers. "Sell me two more?"

"I bought those peppers at the stall. They may not be available." Xia Chutang took the money and didn't say anything: "If I buy it, can I bring you two more peppers?"

Qiu Lina nodded happily: "Great! Thank you in advance! See you in the cafeteria at noon tomorrow!"
